Chapter 100

Penulis: Bright Iridium
Clang!

The scalpel landed on the floor with an audibly clang, while the anesthetist paused abruptly.

Dr. Jones frowned at his assistant and snapped, "What's your problem?!"

The assistant shook her head, her expression innocent. "It wasn't me! I just—"

That was when the anesthetist pulled out the syringe too. "Earthquake!"

Serena quickly opened her eyes as the surgical lamp overhead suddenly turned off, while her head started to spin as she felt the abortion chair shaking too.

"Earthquake!" the hospital PA system blared as a siren rang out. "Please evacuate to safety!"

Serena was still drawing a blank as Stella and the anesthetist helped her out of the abortion chair.

As the door opened, they saw chaos outside as patients and medical staff rushed down the hallway to safety.

Huxley, who was still waiting outside, hurried to them. "What happened? Is the surgery done?"

"Let's get out of here first!" Stella snapped, still holding Serena up on her feet.

Huxley nodded, shielding t

    Serena had definitely known she was pregnant for a while now and had no intention of letting Silas know!Silas then remembered what happened the other day, how violent that winter day had been.And yet, Serena remained determined, leaving him so blinded by anger that he forgot the most important details!His fingers clenching around the steering wheel, his expression was dark and sinister as he sped through the city's highways, switching lanes dangerously but never slowing down!That was when it occurred to Silas that Serena was really going to marry Huxley while being pregnant with his child, so that his child would call someone else Daddy!His lips curling into a sneer, he growled, "I'm really impressed now, Serena Vale!"Holding the steering wheel with one hand, he swiped through his contacts with the other and soon called Yuvan.As soon as Yuvan answered, he barked, "Serena's at your hospital right now! Give me her medical records—"Honk!!!A semi that was just beating the

    Stella got Serena checked into the hospital before taking her to a room to get changed.She performed some routine checks after, and though the results came in just thirty minutes, the minutes felt like years to Serena.She stood by the window in silence, while Huxley and Stella quietly kept her company.Soon, the report arrived, giving them the green light just as the operating room sent word that they were ready."Serena," Stella finally called out to her. "It's time."As Serena blinked and slowly turned around, Stella walked up and hugged her. "It's alright. I'll be right by your side.""Yeah," Serena breathed softly.Huxley remained silent, but his brow was furrowed and his expression somber.Still, he went with the ladies to the operating room and waited outside while Stella took Serena's hand and led her inside, the doors shutting loudly behind them.-At a courtroom in the Northlorn Supreme Court, the judge struck his gavel as he announced that the plaintiff had won th

    Serena sighed softly and stood up. "That's not what I mean—I'm grateful for the offer, but I've made up my mind.""Really?" Huxley asked, watching her as he stood up too."Yeah." Serena nodded, her tone determined. "I was even wondering how I should hide it from you during the procedure, but since you know it anyway, just keep it a secret, alright?"Seeing that she was so sure, Huxley didn't try to argue. "Definitely." He nodded, but soon paused and asked, "What time will you be going tomorrow?""Nine in the morning.""I'll give you a ride."'"No, I'd rather not impose." Serena smiled. "Stella will be waiting there. She'll arrange for everything.""No, our mentor and his wife told me to take good care of you," Huxley said, shaking his head. "You want me to keep your secret, don't you? Then let me stay with you until the procedure is over, so that I can make sure you're safe."Then, before Serena could argue, he spoke before she could. "Well, that's decided. I'm calling Mr. Ja

    Silas eventually left with Shawn, along with the Ragdoll that Dawn insisted Serena would like.Once they were out of sight, Serena started to fall, but Huxley caught her and carried her to the couch.She reclined against it as she clutched her chest and heaved, her cheeks as white as a sheet, and she was clearly hyperventilating from agitation.Huxley held a hand over her mouth and calmly guided her. "You're gasping too much—I'll help keep your mouth closed. Now, breathe as I do. One, two, inhale… right. That's it. One, two…"With his help, Serena's breathing returned to normal, and he brought her a glass of warm water. "Have a drink."Serena reclined against the couch as he drank half of it, her stiffened form slowly relaxing.Huxley picked up a pillow to cushion her back. "You'll feel better with this."Serena's pale lips curled into a smile. "Thank you."Over the last few days, she had definitely come to realize that Huxley was a good man despite his sharp tongue, and he kne

    Serena was glaring at Silas in turn, his words leaving him at once tearful and smiling. "Your son only has one mother, and her name is Dawn Zeller! Also, you are free to think of me as you like—foul-tempered, an irresponsible mother, or whatever insults you can think of, and I'll admit it! That's why I have no business being Shawn Ford's mother, so get out of my office this instant!"As she finished venting all her frustrations in that single rant, she was wobbling, while the world seemed to spin around her.Huxley quickly caught her, breathing softly into her ear, "Are you okay?""Yeah." Serena nodded, taking deep breaths so that her vision cleared.Just watching them left Silas' eyes narrowing dangerously, while Shawn's mouth hung open as he stared blankly at Serena.Did his mother just say that she didn't want him anymore?Panicking, he stopped throwing a tantrum and wrapped his arms firmly around Silas' neck, looking at once innocent and doleful."Dad, Mom's just upset, righ
